BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- Cape Motorsports with Wayne Taylor Racing maintained its mastery of the Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship Powered by Mazda, sweeping the Cooper Tires Grand Prix of Alabama at Barber Motorsports Park.

Aaron Telitz won the first race and Nico Jamin won the second race on the rain-soaked road course.

Anthony Martin also drove an impressive race for John Cummiskey Racing with a late pass on championship leader Jake Eidson (Pabst Racing) to take second place in the second race and secure his first podium finish. Eidson took his fourth successive third-place finish after winning the opening two rounds in  St. Petersburg, Fla., but his championship lead has been trimmed to 11 points over Jamin. Telitz is another 10 points back in third.

Jamin, 19, set the fastest lap of the second race in a green/white-checkered one-lap dash to the finish. His eventual margin of victory was 1.1751 seconds.

"I was very mad 24 hours ago," said Jamin, who whose car ended up in the gravel after tangling with the car driven by Victor Franzoni. "Yesterday was a rough day, but I kept my head up. I was looking forward to getting back out there and starting on pole again. I wanted this win so much; it's a bit of revenge for me.

"The car was so great. The Cape Motorsports guys did such a great job. I didn't make any mistakes and got the win, which feels really good. I had a good start and two good restarts. It was very important on the start to get a good gap and to manage the race from there. When I saw the first full-course caution, I was very nervous, because I had a good gap and then all these guys came back on me! But I had a good restart and kept it going. I'm very excited now for the month of May, with two big races in Indy."

In the first race, Telitz, from Birchwood, Wis., started fourth and moved up one place on the opening lap after the Jamin-Franzoni incident. He made his first impressive move on Lap 18, diving to inside of Eidson under braking for Turn 5 to move into second place. One lap later, he overtook Franzoni under braking in Turn 5 and edged away over the final two laps to earn his first win of the season.

The Cooper Tires USF2000 Championship Powered by Mazda will continue with another pair of races run in support of the Verizon IndyCar Series – and all three steps on the Mazda Road to Indy ladder system – at the Grand Prix of Indianapolis on May 7-9.
